Blizzard: For the umpteenth time, no new races for WotLK

WoW TBC logo - Image 1Apparently, this is among the things that are not coming with World of Warcraft‘s Wrath of the Lich King expansion (as much as we want it). Pigziggy dropped by the WoW forums to inquire on what sort of races Blizzard planned to put into the game come WotLK.

And while we were pretty sure that the previous BlizzCon already hinted on this as not being a possibility, Blizzard rep Bornakk dropped by the forums to put the finishing blow to this old speculation:

We have no plans at this time to implement any new playable races in Wrath of the Lich King. But I assure you we are working on a lot of brand new and exciting content for it and you can check out the website where we will post more details as we get closer to release.

Dang. There goes my hopes of seeing the Pandaren as a playable. While Bornakk’s post pretty much reiterated that no new races were coming to Azeroth (as playables, at least), a lively discussion picked up regarding just what sort of playable races the game could use:

Nukke: alliance are getting buffalo-men to counter tauren horde are getting goblins to counter gnomes …and ogres because of their dance.

Pigziggy: What about Worgens everyone loves a worgen and Ethereals for the alliance they need a race with different morals

Guys who’d like to see the other funny remarks may want to drop by the WoW forums (the source link) to see the full discussion thread.
